[Intro]
Em7
[Verse]
Em7
He heard it loud and clear the silence deafened him,
Em7/F#
All the lights were on but no one else was in.
G
The candles flickered out, the door slammed in the wind
A7sus4
He didn't notice.
Em7
He was all alone in the kitchen with his note
Em7/F#
It said "Dad, I'm leaving home and I'm not coming back for good,
G A7sus4
This is all you've got so run with it and take it to your grave."
[Chorus]
C C/B Am
It's been a bad few weeks,
C C/B Am
I'm sick, I'm sick and tired
C C/B Am
I'm feeling old and past my prime
C C/B Am
But I know we've still got time
[Verse]
Em7
Darling where have you gone?
You've got me worried sick,
Em7/F#
I've rang your friends and searched the woods,
I can't fucking deal with this,
G
I'm an old and dying man and you've got me on the ropes.
A7sus4
Now I'm helpless
Em7
I've searched your note for any clues, using codes and lemon juice.
Em7/F#
I haven't slept for days, brushed my teeth or worn my shoes.
G
I'm starting to go mad, I'm hallucinating too.
A7sus4
Grandma is coming over just to see what she can do.
[Chorus]
C C/B Am
It's been a bad few weeks,
C C/B Am
I'm sick, I'm sick and tired
C C/B Am
I'm feeling old and past my prime
C C/B Am
But I know we've still got time
[Bridge]
G Am G/B Am
My son, she's not coming back,
G Am G/B Am
I'm sorry, you've not come to terms with that.
G Am G/B Am
My son, we buried her last year
G Am G/B Am
I'm sorry, that you needed her back here.
[Chorus]
C C/B Am
It's been a bad few weeks,
C C/B Am
I'm sick, I'm sick and tired
C C/B Am
I'm feeling old and past my prime
C C/B Am
But I know we've still got time
[Outro]
